Studying The Word
My husband and I joined our church in a bible study called 40 Days In The Word. We have only been doing it four days and it has already been just what we needed. I have always heard people say God shows you the versus you need to see at the right time, and boy does he.
Day 1 Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians 1:6
Day 2 Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Philippians 1:27a
This verse is very important to us right now. As my husband had to deal with a situation that we both really prayed about. That God would give him the right words that would be worthy.
Day 3 For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases him. Philippians 2:13
I feel that God is really working in Both of us with our house situation. We have been called to let go of this house and move somewhere else. At his time we have no idea where we are going and that is usually a very scary thing for me but I have this peace that God is going to guide us were he wants our family to be.
Day 4 I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Philippians 3:12b
Day 5 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Philippians 4:6
We we got an offer on our house and lets just say it was not what we had in mind. So we ended up making a counter offer to the people. We are waiting to here back from them but instead of being anxious about it I have this deep sense of peace about the situation.
I pray that God uses this bible study to bring us closer to him as a couple and individually. That we continue to have peace about selling our house and that we are listening to what God is telling us.
